And just as shocking, Fox News had a couple of articles up on their website over the past couple of days on the wedding details and the coverage itself. I just didn't expect much news from here in the States.

That is shocking! I wasn't expecting it either. I had the tv on the news channel then I heard Victorias name. I was like "What!!! She's on the news!!" I was probably a little too excited though.

Regarding the bouquet does anybody know what kind of flowers those are?Do they have any significance to Sweden? like are they the national flower or something because if not the leave a lot to be desired on an otherwise perfect outfit.
Also does anybody know if the bride will toss her bouquet?Is that done in Sweden?

The bridal bouquetThe Crown Princess┤s bridal bouquet consists of a mixture of traditional Swedish summer flowers and more exotic flowers. All the flowers are white, and the bouquet is tied into a free teardrop shape.

When one watches the Crown Princess, one notices that she is most certainly naturally poised in manner. With her hand gestures and facial expressions, she has an animated and engaging dispostion. Seeming transfixed by conversation and acting out a scenario by expression and gesture with the gentleman to her right, HRH then breaks out into a lovely smile, whilst ever so lightly placing her index finger underneath her chin.

She's such a joy to see.

Something which is confirmed for me is the the good relationship between Mary, Maxima, Mette Marit and Mathilde. These ladies seem to thoroughly enjoy one anothers company and tend to bee line for one another.

It was nice to at last finally see Mary and Letizia engage in dialogue at the gala performance aswell. Both were chatting away as they were sitted next to one another.
